    This document is a project report submitted in partial fulfillment of a Master of Science degree in Economics. It analyzes India's energy consumption patterns from 1980 to 2005. Specifically, it examines the relationships between GDP and total energy consumption, total primary energy consumption and total energy production, per capita energy consumption, and population and total primary energy consumption in India. While India has a large economy and population, its per capita energy consumption is very low at 530 kgoe compared to the world average of 1800 kgoe. The report uses secondary data from web sources to study these relationships and India's energy demand growth despite recent economic slowdowns.

    ABSTRACT

    India is currently the world's fourth largest economy in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP)
    terms (the GDP in PPP terms is estimated at approximately USD 3.2 trillion) and the fifth
    largest energy consumer in the world. However, due to its high population of approximately 1.1
    billion, the per-capita consumption of most energy related products is extremely low. The per
    capita energy consumption is estimated to be a very modest 530 Kg of Oil Equivalent (kgoe)
    while the world average is approximately 1800 kgoe

    .The global financial crisis and credit
    crunch have slowed Indias significant economic growth particularly in the manufacturing
    sector, and GDP growth rates have declined from 9.3 percent in 2007 to 5.3 percent in the
    fourth quarter of 2008. Despite a recent slowing economy, Indias energy demand continues to
    increase. The present dissertation is to analyze the Energy consumption pattern in India from
    1980 to 2005. This study deals with secondary data obtained from web sources. The core
    objective is to find the relationship between the GDP (at current price) and the total energy
    consumption in India. This study tries to explain the relationship between the Total primary
    energy resource consumption and total production of energy and the per capita consumption of
    energy. It reveals the relationship between the population of India and the total primary energy
    consumption.
